I've long been a fan of Jekyll (written in Ruby) for static sites, funnily enough, just saw a post in my history here recommending it in 2014, so I've been using it for longer than I thought. Someone wrote a nice front-end interface for it, which is built for GitHub Pages, but can be ported to...

Definitely missed this place - glad it's back up and running! :)

They were acquired by RackSpace :)

Same here, though I can't remember quite when it was. Thinking somewhere around December 2008, perhaps later. It was something like $300-400/yr for a 512MB (1GB burstable) Virtuozzo VPS with 50GB storage, 100MBPS for ~500GB/mo, cPanel + R1Soft backup + Full Management. The server performed...

This always used to irritate me - that, and the 'automatic typo correction' they once had, which on occasion would redirect legitimate domains like 'site.co' to ' site.com'. But, when I was approached by a friend a year or so ago for a network-wide parental control software, I tried out...

Obligatory "IANAL", and note that I'm not particularly well versed in US law (as I'm not a US citizen), but, I assume that most hosts would have a clause in their terms that states "risky" orders would be cancelled/void - and further a clause that allows the company to refuse service at their...

Whoops - obviously too keen to respond ;)

Thats a little concerning - if you're having trouble, I'd usually contact the CEO/MD if the usual escalation route isn't going anywhere. The only head of department I know of at the moment is Doug, who runs the email side of things. Drop Taylor Rhodes an email, and I'm sure you'll get your...

On Windows, I prefer MBAM with either Sophos Endpoint AV or ESET Endpoint AV. Of the freebies, I'd go MSE.

Remote Utilities is quite nice.

We still make heavy use of Trello, and find it fits our needs fairly well.

Every Xmas eve, we watch "A Christmas Carol" (the Patrick Stewert version) - then boxing day is for 1 and 2 of the Home Alone's. National lampoons is great - I prefer "Vacation" though. Cracks me up.

RamNode - 1: Solid service over many years, with great support. VPSDime - 1: One of the best large-RAM providers I've used, though I don't use them as frequently as others. QuickPacket - 1: Run a couple of dedicated servers over there, network is great, not had any hardware problems, and...

I've run several forums in the past with a similar problem of lower quality posting from a subset of new users; and also enacted a similar split usergroup system based on both time and number of posts (somewhere around 5-7 days and 10+ posts). Once the criterion had been met, the users would be...

As far as I can see, they're still offering the free mailboxes (up to 10): https://mail.zoho.com/biz/mailsignup.do?plan=free I set a friend up on Zoho a couple of weeks back, and didn't have any issues with signing up on their free plan. I've used Zoho a few times in the past - but never for a...
